We had a wonderful time at Nautilus. The staff was friendly, approachable, dedicated and always happy to help. You can borrow bikes and umbrellas from the hotel. It is lovely to cycle down the Poetto and visit different beaches. You can take sun beds from the cafe opposite the hotel and enjoy a comfortable day on the beach. All you have to do is cross the road and you’ll find yourself on a beautiful beach with fine sand and the cleanest water I’ve ever seen. The only downside for us was our room, very small for 2 people and a little dated, with some old and damaged furniture, such as the headboard. Rather than that, all rooms have air-con and the area is quiet at night, so we slept well and enjoyed our little balcony. There’s a supermarket close by and you can buy cheap food and drinks. Breakfast was generous, with healthy options such as yoghurt and fruit. I’d recommend checking the room size when you book. There are some newer rooms that have just been opened so those must be really nice and some have hot tubs… we’ll be back next year!
